Download or read book Bitter Pills written by Stephen Fried and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2011-04-27 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We take our medicines on faith. We assume our doctors are well-informed, our drug companies scrupulous, our FDA diligent—and our medications safe. All too often we're wrong. Just how wrong is documented in this critically acclaimed portrait of the international pharmaceutical industry by one of our most highly respected investigative journalists. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), adverse drug reactions are the fourth leading cause of death in America. Reactions to prescription and over-the-counter medications kill far more people annually than all illegal drug use combined. Stephen Fried's wife took a pill for a minor infection—and ended up in the emergency room. Some drug reactions go away in a few hours or days. Diane's did not. This emotionally wrenching experience launched Fried into a five-year examination of the entire pharmaceutical industry, the most profitable legal business in the world. Rigorously documented, Bitter Pills is a full-scale portrait of pill making and pill taking in America today, presented through the powerful human drama of doctors, patients, drug companies, the FDA, and government regulators as they war for control of our medicine cabinets.

Book Synopsis Idiomatic Constructions in Italian by : Simonetta Vietri
Download or read book Idiomatic Constructions in Italian written by Simonetta Vietri and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2014-11-15 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is devoted to the analysis of Italian idioms with either ordinary or support verbs (also called light verbs). The research focuses on the exhaustive description of idioms, and is based on their systematic classification according to the principles of the Lexicon-Grammar methodology developed by Maurice Gross (1975, 1979 and further). A thorough examination of the literature shows strong disagreement on the acceptability of some idiomatic constructions. For this reason, the Web was used as a corpus to verify judgments on the supposed ungrammatical constructions. This approach showed that idiomatic constructions which have always been considered ungrammatical are instead perfectly acceptable if contextualized. The results obtained include the following: passive is not a "special case" when it concerns idioms, and idiomatic constructions show the same complexity as non-idiomatic constructions.
Download or read book Food written by Robert Palmatier and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-08-30 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each of the more than seven hundred entries in the dictionary contains a description of the historical background of each of the two types of language, literal and nonliteral, and provides an explanation for the relationship between them. Wherever possible, dates of first record in English are provided, along with the bibliographical sources of these dates; and all of the works that record those terms and expressions are given in coded form as listed in the Key to Works Cited. A Guide to Reading the Entries illustrates the typical form of an entry by analyzing an example from the dictionary that introduces five nonliteral expressions, cites thirteen bibliographical sources, and refers the reader to three other relevant entries by means of cross-references. Following the dictionary proper is a Classification of Terms According to Source, in which nearly three hundred nonliteral terms and expressions are listed under the more than four hundred literal categories from which they derive.
Book Synopsis Idiomatic Creativity by : Andreas Langlotz
Download or read book Idiomatic Creativity written by Andreas Langlotz and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book revisits the theoretical and psycholinguistic controversies centred around the intriguing nature of idioms and proposes a more systematic cognitive-linguistic model of their grammatical status and use. Whenever speakers vary idioms in actual discourse, they open a linguistic window into idiomatic creativity the complex cognitive processing and representation of these heterogeneous linguistic constructions. Idiomatic creativity therefore raises two challenging questions: What are the cognitive mechanisms that underlie and shape idiom-representation? How do these mechanisms define the scope and limits of systematic idiom-variation in actual discourse? The book approaches these problems by means of a comprehensive cognitive-linguistic architecture of meaning and language and analyses them on the basis of corpus-data from the British National Corpus (BNC). Therefore, Idiomatic Creativity should be of great interest to cognitive linguists, phraseologists, corpus linguists, advanced students of linguistics, and all readers who are interested in the fascinating interplay of language and cognitive processing.This book has a companion website: www.idiomatic-creativity.ch.

Book Synopsis Acting Out in Groups by : Laurence A. Rickels
Download or read book Acting Out in Groups written by Laurence A. Rickels and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Psychoanalytic Congress gathered in 1967 to define the clinical concept of "acting out." Thirty years later, our society, which once labeled those who exhibited excessive aggression as delinquent, celebrates outrageous public behavior. In Acting Out in Groups, writers, literary theorists, and cultural critics explore therapeutic descriptions of acting out in relation to the conduct condoned, even encouraged, on daytime TV talk shows, at political rallies, and in performance. Through a deconstruction of "acting out, " this collection seeks a new; performative style of critical discourse that incorporates the exuberance and intensity of acting out for analytical ends. Topics include the Jenny Jones murder trial; the response of psychoanalysts to the acclaimed documentary Crumb; the place of the Berlin Wall and other national symbols in German life; and the roles of aggression and discipline in childhood development.

Download or read book Love and Light written by Krystn Shrieve and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2024-10-25 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How My Cancer Banished Darkness for All Time Written in real-time on her iPhone, Love and Light tells the story of how one woman chose to face stage 3 colon cancer — from the initial diagnosis while waking from her first colonoscopy ... to the moment when she swallowed her final chemo pill with a tall drink o’ water and a chaser of Malibu Rum. The earliest draft was read by her mom, who dutifully passed each page to her dad. They read at different paces and she watched as her mom laughed, while her dad cried — and smothered a giggle when they looked at each other, befuddled and bemused, as the story ricocheted between moments that were heart-wrenching and heartwarming. Pay no mind to the occasional curse word as you navigate the truly personal, up-close, front-row, blow-by-blow, head-in-a-bucket details of her faith-filled journey — told through actual, real-life, uncensored and unedited texts to family and friends … to girlfriends and besties … to a husband and a Hoya … to one sister and two poker brothers … to cowboys and broncos … and a boy next door.
